foolishwren: what doesn't kill you gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms and a really dark sense of humor (well you know what they say...)

64. [Voice/Action for Goldenrod] Backdated to Friday/Thursdayish.

[It's probably been a week and a half or so since anybody's heard a whole lot from Heather's end of the line-- given the recent turn of events, coupled with catching up on things with her father, she just hasn't been talking much.]

[But if anyone missed the sound of yet another ranty teenager on the 'Gear network, well, today their wishes and hopes will be realized.]

[A crackle of interference precedes her voice, and in the background there's the steady rumble of a Steelix making headway on a dirt path.]



Heeeey Johto, what's crackin'?

Totally fell off the face of the planet for a bit there.

Anyway, for those who care, Goldenrod just came into sight over the hill, so Dad and I'll be strolling into town within a couple hours, probably.

I'll be lookin' for a few of you as soon as we get checked in and stuff-- you guys know who you are. [She's lookin' at you, Kaito. Dinner plans aside, she still needs to give him that hug.]

And uh-- Snake, you still in the hotel? I'll heal Solid up at the Center first if you want me to, but otherwise, I'm sure he'll be glad to see his Trainer. Sorry the trip wound up takin' so long.

Anyway, uh-- ... see you guys in a few hours.

... Feel free to call me up and chat, though, the road's dusty and it's a real bore to look at for hours on end.




[ooc: For Action, feel free to encounter Heather in the hotel lobby or Pokemon Center healin' up her monsters after arriving.]

[He grunts at that, but doesn't snap or grumble about it. Kids and their language.]

No. Your planet was about to be enslaved, and your race annihilated. We were fighting off an incursion of Decepticon forces... and their leader.

[While theirs was dead, but that's another story. In response to her question, he fumbles on the video feed. An Onix is peering curiously at the screen from behind him.]

This.

[And Ironhide holds up a snarling ball of fur.]

Yeah. It does. Reason we try to prevent it... protect your species.

[He shrugs, still holding the angry Teddiursa by its adorable little scruff.]

I call it "Jaws". Seemed appropriate after it attempted to ingest Napalm.

[It kicks its tiny feet in protest. The aforementioned Napalm -- the Onix -- just shakes her head.]

You have one of these?
show_my_cannons: (Human | Do what where now?)

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-09 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Where do you get those from?

[He's not used to having to protect himself. He's usually a walking tank.]

... So what bit you, then?
show_my_cannons: (Human | Something on my head?)

Video - Nah, it's cool. Finals happen :(

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-12 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
[He grunts.]

I am... not used to lacking armor. Supposed to have it at all times. If you see any, inform me.

[Because damn, this form feels weak and squishy, by comparison. He peers at the screen, studying the Totodile with a raised eyebrow.]

... Yeah. I can see that. You should get it repaired.
show_my_cannons: (Human | Do what where now?)

Video - Oh noooo D8

[Ironhide's hoping he doesn't have to live for one year as a human. No offense, it's just too weird.]

... So what do you do after it fights, then?

[He also needs to learn that 'repair' doesn't automatically translate anymore.]
show_my_cannons: (Human | Ashes to ashes)

Video - HOORAY!

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-12 08:30 am (UTC)(link)
Auto-repair function. Yeah... we have that.

[But it really helps to have a medic on hand. And Ironhide's medic... isn't. He hates that.]

Had a medic. He... did not make it here.

[Pause.]

Maybe you should take your creature. See if they can fix it.

... Hygiene... products.

[Seriously, what. This is definitely worse than Jaws. Or Egg. And Egg ate his plate the other day.]

It seems energetic.

[Ironhide doesn't really know of any other than soap, aside from oil and wax.]

And you did not deal with the problem then?

... Hit it harder. Maybe that will teach it.
show_my_cannons: (Human | Can kill you with rope)

Video

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-14 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
And that failed to help anything...

[He shrugs.]

Built for war. Spent millions of years in combat... That sticks with you. If you came from a violent planet, then, yeah. Probably be all right there.

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-14 09:54 am (UTC)(link)
Then what?

[Because now he's curious.]

Yeah. Been around a long time. Sounds longer in your years.
show_my_cannons: (Human | I don't know where to look.)

[personal profile] show_my_cannons 2011-05-14 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmn. Bad neighborhood... I get that.

[Ironhide isn't one to really understand the various social norms of his own people -- much less humanity. But even he can see that pause. He won't push it.]

Not in war, no. If you get bored, you get sloppy. End up a pile of spare parts in the enemy's medical bay.

Your soldiers are tough. They last just fine.
